The Problem
Your autoclave is probably releasing bacteria into the air. The escape of microorganisms from steam-sterilizers is a serious issue for all individuals (patients, biologists, nurses, professors, etc.) in hospitals and laboratories. It is prudent that steps be taken to prevent the release of any microorganisms from steam-sterilizers. It’s time to rethink how we use such a common piece of laboratory equipment!

The Solution
Consolidated’s Effluent Decontamination System utilizes a high-efficiency filter to remove bacteria from the purged air of steam sterilizers. It is a simple and unique design which incorporates a patented, ultra-high efficiency filter, rated at 99.9999+% efficiency for 0.01 micron. This system can be factory-installed on new Consolidated Sterilizers or retrofitted to existing units regardless of manufacturer.

The effectiveness of Consolidated’s system has been successfully proven by independent facilities.
